Simo, Anders & Lennert from Roslagen in Sweden like VWs. They also like motorcycles! and this is the result... 3 totally unique bikes, none of which cost more than $1000 (£600) to build.
Despite the ratty look, there's some serious engineering in those babies: 100% home made frames, 1800cc campervan engines (more powerful & just as cheap as a Bug motor), single sided front and rear swing arms (so Simo could use the original VW hubcabs), the original Volks gear boxes converted to foot shift and chain drive - the list goes on and on.
Other cool stuff includes a seat from a WWII anti-aircraft gun, gas tank made from an oil drum, parts from Saab & Datsun cars etc. And all 100% road legal!
